What were the basics of Professor Dennis Hart Mahan regarding a tactical offensive operation?
ChuckSiata
Although West Point Professor Dennis H. Mahan is most famous for his publications on fortifications and military defenses, he also publish books on tactical offensive operations. Some the keys to his ideas on this matter are as follows:1. Offensive operations should consist of three basic formations;
1a. The first unit should be an advanced guard to find the locations of the enemy and engage in skirmishes as needed;
2a. Calvary would be a logical part of this advance unit;
2, The offense would be in the second unit and be expected to engage the enemy's main body of defense; and
3. A sufficient unit of reservists should be available for reinforcements, or to conduct another offensive front.
